    DEAD OR ALIVE 2 Modding tutorials and discussion

    Hey all. Below is a work in progress spaghetti godot importer for kas00.emp and kas00.cat from doao. You need godot 4.5, they fixed the dds import from buffer in it. Add a MeshInstance3D node, and attach the script below to it, then run the scene. The screenshots are from the godot editor 4.5...

    DEAD OR ALIVE 2 Modding tutorials and discussion

    A release of DOA OL, shipped with debug symbols for the server of the previous release, server.pdb You can get the most detailed dump, using cvdump. I attached a dump made by pdbripper. It's a text file, with doao data, mostly network related, but also you can dig gems like this one...

    DoA3 modding

    The game is cutting all the costumes above 9. You need the hex patch to use all 7 costumes per character from TDATA. No. I don't think this is possible. I kind of saw a possibility to load from TDATA, 14 costumes instead of 7. But it requires rewriting some shitty, Japanese style codded...

    So, I think I kind of found the source of the sound corruption. The sound effects have such parameters as: - audio_chunk_size - audio is made of small chunks, you start playing at the beginning of a chunk, you can't start in the middle of a audio chunk. - loop_start - offset in audio where the...

    Yes, I have seen this. "Frequency: 22050" - is wrong. Something else also could be wrong about this tutorial(I put my bet on "Criteria").

    DOA3++ Balance/Gameplay Mod

    How do I play wva files? Is there wva converter or something? I'd like an easier way to play sounds than the game itself. env_snw.wva has 4 audio files, three of them are looped sound effects for water, waterfall and wind. Surprisingly the wind sound is ok. I think that could be a key to how to...

    More thoughts on the matter. First dword in the wva header is a counter of how many audio files are contained in this audio pack, and it's followed by offsets to each audio file. Null offset means no audio file, and it needs to be skipped. According to Gultigargars findings the positions for...

    DOA3++ Balance/Gameplay Mod

    Really smart. Here is a bit of trickery I came out with just now: - in "/EmuDisk/Partition4" deleted the back up [loadfile.afs]. - HxD hex editor is needed cause it can easily work with huge files. - opened 'env_oct.wva' in HxD, and copied the header(the numbers before a bunch of zeroes) -...

    Has anyone converted Bayman's bay04 from DOAO to xpr format for doa2u? This costume is a DOAO exclusive and doesn't exist in doa2u.

    DoA3 modding

    Maybe yes. But directly editing a character, that is already used in the game in some way, could be risky. Like, at some point it could be impossibly to make further changes without breaking the game play. I bet my money on Chen, his involvement in the game is minimal. Tengu in the other hand...
